Did anyone listening to Ted Cruz's rendition of Green Eggs and Ham notice the irony in the children's story he chose to read to the Senate? It is about someone who does not like something he has never tried and who doesn't want to give it a chance. At the end, he tries it AND HE LIKES IT! Hmmm...

What is it costing us (US) for 41 faux foolibusters? How much does it cost each time they do it? i.e. – are we paying overtime for staff, etc.? They are wasting our $$ and beating their heads against a brick wall for something that will never happen – they know it and their playing us again!

They are going against the will of the American people!! We already had the healthcare debate which a lot of their long touted ideas were included, congress approved the law, a majority republican Supreme Court Said its constitutional and then a whopping majority of Americans reflected Pres. Obama in approval of what he did. So this is nothing more than a minority of congress and constituents trying to overthrow the will of the Majority of Americans....which is what a COOP is. The only to stop the law was to win the past elections and the sore LOSERS LOST.
*****Its not about principles or even ideology......It's all about President Obama. They even turned against a lot of their long held healthcare ideas because of Mr. Obama. It's all about being afraid of the black guy and thus regaining Power..
